Leisure Arts Crochet Refresher Book

Product Description Are you a former crocheter who wants to get started again, to make gifts for a special baby in your life? Crochet Refresher has everything you need to get re-acquainted with your long-abandoned skills. It starts with a review of basic techniques featuring left- and right-handed illustrations, plus video links to help you get back up to speed in no time; a washcloth project is perfect for practicing the stitches. Additional stitches and techniques are explained next, so you'll review everything you need to make the fun designs that follow. Parents will appreciate the washcloth, one of the six blankets (Plaid, Stacked Blocks, Circle of Love, Waves, Flowers and Stars, and Puffs), baby hat, and baby mitts, especially if you use easy-care yarn. About the Author After many years as a freelance writer specializing in travel books and articles, Sharon Hernes Silverman rediscovered her childhood passion for crocheting and began designing, teaching, and writing. Her fresh designs and crystal-clear instructions have made her patterns favorites among crocheters. Silverman is based in West Chester, Pennsylvania.
